Am I Allergic to Men? by Kristen Bailey
5.0
This review was originally posted on Star Crossed Reviews I received this book for free from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I don't know where to start this review, I am so sad that the series is over but hell what a book to end on!
I think Lucy is the person we all wish we could be. She is direct, has strong self-belief and will stick to her morals. Lucy isn't afraid to call someone out if she doesn't like their behaviour. I wish I was as brave as Lucy because sometimes people need calling on their sh*t. It was very interesting finding out about Lucy's missing decade and what she got up to.
This book was full of some of the best laugh out loud moments. I listened to the audiobook for this and regularly found myself chuckling away as I listened not caring who could hear me. There were also quite a few tearful moments. Kristen really brought out all the emotions for me in this book.
I absolutely loved having all the sisters together and I can only imagine what it must have been like in that house while they were all growing up. I come from a big family and I know it was chaos for us.
My one tiny criticism is the name of the book. I don't think it quite fits with the story. Lucy isn't allergic to men and the story isn't about her finding love so I feel like it gives off the wrong vibe to prospective readers.
I really enjoyed the narration too. Sarah did a really good job with building the emotions. She also made it really easy to follow who was talking when. I found her voice to be very engaging.
I am devastated that this series is over but I do look forward to seeing what Kristen is going to bring next as I'm sure it will be filled with her trademark humour and characters you can't help but love.
